NO PROBABILITY OF AN EARLY APPOINTMENT.
1t is probable that the appointment Of a new
city postmaster viii be postponed for some time
yet. The President has talked with a number OF
persons on the subject and expressed the desire 10
get good, active man In the place. stating that
he intended 70 make q change in the office, but he
has In no way slgDified preference for any person
or given any tntlmation as 10 when the appoint
ment would be made. The purpose OF Mr. VIM.
UickSon's visit TO the White House the other day
was not 20 press his own claim or that OF any
other, but TO urge the President TO appoint some
good District man, instead OF going outside OF the
District.
Postmaster-Generaly Villas and Don NJ. Dickinson
are urging the appointment OF John Enright, OF
Detroit, and the District democrats are fearful
lest the appointee should be an outsider. The re-
ports that there is a want or harmony among the
District men, that they are nghtiDg with
each other over the Office, is denied by candidates
aud their friends. They say that there Is no night
Tor the place at all; that while each candidate
may feel that his claim is best, the appointments
of any good District man Will be received with
general favor. The greatest anxiety Is 10 keep

PRESIDENT FLOQUET SAID TO BE DETERMINED TO
RESIGN,

PARIS, July 12.-In the course OF the debate yes
terday In the chamber OF deputies NJ. Clemenceau
charged that the government was in league with
the conservatives The Boulanger question arose
during the complete diSOrgxnizatlon OF the repub-
Acan party. He condemned the demonstration in
favor OF Gen. Bouianger, but he added that IL was
easily explained The people believed that they
saw in Gen. Boulanger not deliyerer, but man
who was attacked by the German press and
French conservatives. His popularity was that
which the chamber should have had had IL reso-
lutely entered upon the work OF reform. Public
opinion Was being m1sled. Leaders were needed
whose motto was Forward /" who were for the re-
public against the monarchy. In conclusion NJ
Clemenceau said that he was not able to under
stand why there were Boulangists ana anti
Boulangtsts. Gen. BOulanger was now in his
proper position and where he ought to remain. NJ.
Laisant, amid great uproar, tried to defend Gen.
Boulanger. He said that the cabinet was consti-
tuted under foreign pressure. This assertion
brought the premier (Rouvier) to his feet and
threatening to leave the chamber unless the
president called Nj. Laisant to order, which was
done.
N. Rouvier then replied to NJ Clemenceau. He
said in effect that the government was still de-
SirouS OF having the republican majority, but as
the right had assisted In solving many questions,
and while he would not ask their support, he
would not consider them enemies. In conclusion
Minister Rouvter declared that II 200 republicans
voted against him the ministry would resign. At
the close OF the sitting there were well-credited
rulnorS afoat that President FlOQuet would re-
sign, and that the government were urging him TO
reconsider his determination.

mltted that he was stockholder IA the Montana

bate from the Union Pacific. He admitted that
the legislature OF Colorado had appointed CON-
mlttee TO investigate charges OF corruption in
connection with the senatorial contest that re-
suited In the election OF senator ii. W. Teller. The
witness admitted he had gone before that CON-
mittee, and had refused disclose Information in
ms possession regarding the charges OF corruption.
ne had SO refused because the committee, with
the exception OF one or two men, was composed
OF the meanest and most false and dishonest OF men,

give this Commission the Information he had re
fused TO give TO the legislative committee lie re.

iegiSiature sold their votes The Commissioners
said IT would be part OF their duty TO lnvesti.
gate matter OK that sort II the Union Pacific
kallway Company was In any way connected with

state his belief, based on what he saw and on
rounding circumstances.
Auc SoliiiilSSloIleES requested tne senator 70
furnish them with the names or all parties who
could throw any light On the subject. AS to the
question or the settlement OF the railroad debt 10
the government, Senator Hin was OF the opinion
